The only slightly disappointing note is that I just missed (I think I was 2 back) getting manager Don Buford's autograph and I still haven't been able to meet him.

Mike,
That's a cool story. I hope you can find that tape. It's interesting to note that the stadium in Bowie wasn't ready in 1993, so the BaySox played their first season at Memorial Stadium.
